Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CBR 650F 2018

In addition to its super-sporty appearance, which is strongly based on that of the Fireblade, it is above all its sovereignty and versatility that make it a tough competitor on the road with models with more prestige or more performance. It is as much a super sports bike as a faithful companion in everyday life. The visible and tangible Honda quality conveys to the owner that he will have a long, carefree life with the CBR650F.

Technology somewhat outdated in some places

Husqvarna 701 Supermoto 2018

The 701 Supermoto is the right vehicle for asphalt surfers who regard a motorbike as a toy without wanting to forego suitability for everyday use. The ABS also meets sporting demands, can be switched off or operated in Supermoto mode using a "dongle" from the accessories. The ride-by-wire offers three different riding modes to choose from, which can also only be changed while riding with an extra. This brings us to the downer in the Austro-Swedish melange: we would have liked to see some extras in the standard equipment. One of these is the set of stickers for the many white surfaces on the fairing.
